The '''P-Wing''' is a [[kart]] in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. It is the spiritual successor to the [[Wild Wing]] from ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', considering both are speedy karts built in the shape of "exotic"-type sports cars and both have wing-themes. [[P-Wing|Its namesake]] is referenced by wing patterns which can be seen in the front and sides of the kart, and the power-up icon appears in the front. The emblem is located on the hood. The rear wings resemble the rear fins on the [[Blue Falcon]].
 
==History==
===''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''===
The P-Wing first appears as a kart body in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' as part of the DLC pack [[Animal Crossing x Mario Kart 8|''Animal Crossing'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']]. It boosts speed on all terrain and weight, but hinders acceleration and anti-gravity handling slightly, and  traction very heavily. When the kart enters [[anti-gravity]], the back parts of the kart jut out over the wheels, and the power-up icon flashes gold (as in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''). The P-Wing has the same stats as the [[Mach 8]], [[Circuit Special]], [[Sports Coupe]], [[Gold Standard]], and [[B Dasher]].
 
Its engine sound is a variation of the [[Circuit Special]], [[Sports Coupe]], [[Mach 8]], and [[B Dasher]]. It has a DOHC (dual overhead camshaft) {{wp|V8 engine}} from a {{wp|Pontiac Banshee}}. Also like the aforementioned karts, the P-Wing has a {{wp|supercharger}}, which is bolted over the intake manifold and can be heard while accelerating to maximum speed.
 
In ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', it can be randomly unlocked by collecting [[coin]]s. Its stats have been altered so that it now boosts ground and anti-gravity speed and weight while hindering all other stats. The acceleration, handling, and mini-turbo stats are further worsened, and the traction stat has been slightly improved. It now shares stats only with the B Dasher and Circuit Special. The  CPU [[Mario]] and [[Pauline]] can be seen driving this kart body with the [[Blue Standard]] tires and [[Parafoil]] glider.
 
===''Mario Kart Tour''===
The P-Wing returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', where it is classified as a High-End kart. It uses the [[Blue Standard]] tires from ''Mario Kart 8'' and ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''. As anti-gravity does not exist in the game, the back parts of the P-Wing do not extend. The P-Wing increases the duration of [[Mini-Turbo]] speed boosts and the number of points earned for performing Mini-Turbos. The [[Peach Tour]] introduced a pink variant called the [[Pink Wing]], which is also classified as a High-End kart. The [[Penguin Tour]] introduced another variant of the P-Wing with the High-End classification, an icy-blue variant named the [[Frost Wing]].
 
Since its introduction to the game in the [[Ice Tour]], the P-Wing has appeared in regular pipes in each tour, including the All-Clear Pipe. Starting with the [[Battle Tour]], it is also available in the Daily Selects lineup. The table below shows this kart's special availabilities by tour.

The P-Wing is a kart in the Mario Kart series. It is the spiritual successor to the Wild Wing from Mario Kart Wii, considering both are speedy karts built in the shape of "exotic"-type sports cars and both have wing-themes. Its namesake is referenced by wing patterns which can be seen in the front and sides of the kart, and the power-up icon appears in the front. The emblem is located on the hood. The rear wings resemble the rear fins on the Blue Falcon.

History[edit]

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[edit]

The P-Wing first appears as a kart body in Mario Kart 8 as part of the DLC pack Animal Crossing × Mario Kart 8. It boosts speed on all terrain and weight, but hinders acceleration and anti-gravity handling slightly, and traction very heavily. When the kart enters anti-gravity, the back parts of the kart jut out over the wheels, and the power-up icon flashes gold (as in New Super Mario Bros. 2). The P-Wing has the same stats as the Mach 8, Circuit Special, Sports Coupe, Gold Standard, and B Dasher.

Its engine sound is a variation of the Circuit Special, Sports Coupe, Mach 8, and B Dasher. It has a DOHC (dual overhead camshaft) V8 engine from a Pontiac Banshee. Also like the aforementioned karts, the P-Wing has a supercharger, which is bolted over the intake manifold and can be heard while accelerating to maximum speed.

In Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, it can be randomly unlocked by collecting coins. Its stats have been altered so that it now boosts ground and anti-gravity speed and weight while hindering all other stats. The acceleration, handling, and mini-turbo stats are further worsened, and the traction stat has been slightly improved. It now shares stats only with the B Dasher and Circuit Special. The CPU Mario and Pauline can be seen driving this kart body with the Blue Standard tires and Parafoil glider.

Mario Kart Tour[edit]

The P-Wing returns in Mario Kart Tour, where it is classified as a High-End kart. It uses the Blue Standard tires from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. As anti-gravity does not exist in the game, the back parts of the P-Wing do not extend. The P-Wing increases the duration of Mini-Turbo speed boosts and the number of points earned for performing Mini-Turbos. The Peach Tour introduced a pink variant called the Pink Wing, which is also classified as a High-End kart. The Penguin Tour introduced another variant of the P-Wing with the High-End classification, an icy-blue variant named the Frost Wing.

Since its introduction to the game in the Ice Tour, the P-Wing has appeared in regular pipes in each tour, including the All-Clear Pipe. Starting with the Battle Tour, it is also available in the Daily Selects lineup. The table below shows this kart's special availabilities by tour.
